Chapter 464: Blocking the Road

Chapter 465

As far as the eye can see, there are verdant wheat fields in front of you, and when you turn around, you can see hills covered with long grass behind you.

Now it is out of Qingzhou, and it is nearly a day away from the capital.

Yan Qingge lifted the curtain on the carriage and instructed Xunshuang: "It's almost noon, I'm holding my breath a little, ask when you will rest." ”

Xunshuang jumped out of the car, ran out quickly and asked, and came back to her after a while: "Niangniang, in a quarter of an hour, there is a small village, where you can rest and cook some hot food, and you can buy some fresh vegetables and fish from the villagers." ”

"Good!" Yan Qingge nodded.

It's been almost a month since Le Xuan was rescued, and Le Yi's body was almost raised, and he began to preside over government affairs, Yan Qingge didn't have to stay longer, and a group of people got back on the road and went back to the capital.

When I came, I went back to travel lightly, and the only thing I did was more than a dozen cars of Qingzhou specialties, and nearly 100 good horses raised by Qingzhou and their rations on the road.

When I went back, because there were many horses and few things, I walked faster than when I came, and I didn't like to eat and live in the wilderness at that time, but I could always find a better place, and it was not very hard.

If she wants to change Yan Qingge alone, she will inevitably choose to return to Beijing quickly, but she still has two children, just for the two of them, she can only slow down.

The farmstead ahead was soon there.

The carriage and horses stopped, and someone went to find farmers to borrow stoves and kitchens in the name of Yanwangfu, and buy some things.

was eating hot soup and rice, there was a sudden quarrel outside, and Wen Xue ran over panting, and said: "Niangniang, someone came to the front, saying that it was sent by Princess Yan, but we didn't look like it, and we wanted to ask them for tokens, but they refused to give it." ”

Yan Qingge was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say they don't look like them?" ”

As she spoke, she walked to the door, glanced through the curtain, and knew why.

I saw more than a dozen men standing outside, dressed quite normally, but if you look closely, you will find that these men do not have beards on their faces.

Nowadays, most men have the habit of growing beards, even if they don't grow beards like Yan Xiuyu, they won't shave so cleanly in such a journey.

The first is that the time is rushed, the conditions are not enough, and it is difficult to blow, and the second is that the road is outside to experience wind, frost, rain and snow, and it is better to have beard protection than no beard.

But these dozen or so people have clean and slippery faces, without half a hair, and there is only one explanation, that is, these people are eunuchs.

It's no wonder that the people in the Yanwang Mansion are suspicious.

Although the eldest princess of Roufu was married from the palace, according to the law, she should marry many eunuchs, but she doesn't like these eunuchs, she never asks them to serve in the Yanwang Mansion, and she has never followed such a person, and she has never been with such a person, and she has ordered the subordinates of the Yanwang Mansion to do it, and she will never work these eunuchs.

Everyone in the Yanwang Mansion knew about this matter, and the attitude of these dozen eunuchs was very tough, not only did they not take out the tokens to prove their identity, but they also had to see Yan Qingge immediately, which naturally made people deeply suspicious.

Yan Qingge looked through the curtain, and there were many doubts in his heart, at this time, Aman suddenly ran out of the next room, and poked his head curiously to see the excitement.

As soon as one of the eunuchs saw Aman, a pair of sharp eyes fixed on him, and the people who stopped them in the courtyard hurriedly escorted Aman behind them.

"Carry Aman back." Yan Qingge's heart was also tight, the eunuch's eyes were full of poisonous gas, and he was afraid that the person who came was not good.

It was probably these eunuchs who didn't expect the people of the Yanwang Mansion to be so guarded, so one of the leaders sneered and said loudly: "Tell Princess Ning to prepare something, our mother asked us to explain, and the matter of rescuing the little prince is already in sight." ”

Yan Qingge was taken aback, he didn't expect these eunuchs to bring such news.

She couldn't wait, knowing that these eunuchs might be pretending to be others, and knowing that they might have other purposes, but she still walked out of the house with a single footstep.

Even when she is out and about, Yan Qingge's dress is different from ordinary people, and many small details on her body can only be worn by her grade.

"Princess Ning, do you have to ask our family to say the things that can't be said in court? It really opened our eyes. "A eunuch has a strange qi.

"My father-in-law misunderstood, but I only found out about it." Yan Qingge replied to him: "Please come into the house and sit down, and serve tea to the fathers-in-law!" ”

Seeing that Yan Qingge was polite, the faces of these eunuchs softened slightly.

The leader was still yin and yang, and said: "No wonder Niangniang, a few of us didn't obey Princess Yan's orders, she was seconded to others, and Niangniang Yan's eyes should also be born." ”

Yan Qingge listened, and felt uncomfortable for a while, this eunuch was telling her that their status was high, even if the eldest princess of Roufu asked them to do things, they were polite, and they were wronged here at this time, how undeserved it was.

Although it looks difficult to solve now, the eunuchs love money, and if they give more silver in a while, they will surely smile. Yes, she didn't pay attention to this matter at all.

After inviting these dozen eunuchs into the room and sitting down, tea also came up, and someone from both sides introduced that the leading eunuch's surname was Zhao.

Yan Qingge saw that he didn't drink tea, and persuaded: "Father-in-law, try it, this is a fragrant tea made from the tea leaves picked from the wild tea trees that grow on a lonely cliff in Qingzhou, and there are only about ten catties a year, although it is not very famous, but it is extremely rare, and the taste is not worse than the four famous teas." ”

The eunuch smirked: "It's good tea, we'll know it when we smell it!" But our family likes children, just now the little doll outside the tiger head, our family likes it tightly, if he comes to serve tea, our family will drink fragrant. ”

"That's our little master!" A grandmother who was waiting couldn't help but said on the side.

This eunuch is really too much, although Aman said that he had never worn gold and jade, but at a glance, he knew that his status was noble, and he was still by Yan Qingge's side, but after thinking about it, he knew that he must be Yan Qingge's child. This eunuch really kicked his nose in the face, took himself too seriously, and wanted to ask Aman to serve him tea, and he didn't look at what he looked like.

Yan Qingge was also unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said: "The child in the family is only two years old, and he doesn't know anything yet, even if he hasn't eaten a chopstick rice or drunk a bowl of water by himself, he is used to opening his mouth to reach out for food, it's not that he doesn't want to be close to his father-in-law, but I'm afraid of disturbing my father-in-law Yaxing." ”

The eunuch smiled and stopped talking about it.

Yan Qingge waited for him to drink tea for a while, Xunshuang came in quietly, holding a box, and Yan Qingge knew that she had prepared the silver for these eunuchs.

Yan Qingge took the box from her hand, opened it and saw that there was a thick stack of silver tickets inside, each of which was twenty taels, and there were nearly a hundred, the silver tickets made of donkey skin were not thin, so many silver tickets were put together, and it still made people very happy after reading them.

The matter of finding frost is done well, in fact, they also brought out large-denomination golden tickets, but if there are only a few, although the amount will not be less than the current one, it is not as much as the current one with the hearts of these eunuchs.

Yan Qingge only glanced at it slightly, his face was straight, and he pretended to scold Xunshuang: "Father-in-law, why did you only take these Xie Yi, and bring some of the souvenirs we got in Qingzhou." ”

Frost Xun was very clever, and immediately looked like he had received a great lesson, and kowtowed out in fear, and after a while, he brought in a stout subordinate, who reported a heavy big box in his hand.

As soon as the box was opened, there was a golden box of "gold", the color was slightly red, but it appeared brighter, these "gold" were as big as a child's fist, and the small one was the size of a soybean, at least 20 kilograms.

Seeing that the eyes of these eunuchs were about to burn, Yan Qingge asked someone to hand over the box of silver tickets, and said softly: "Thank you father-in-law for coming all the way to report the news." I hope that the father-in-law will tell us what is going on. ”

For the sake of Jinzi's face, even the eunuch Zhao who had been throwing his face couldn't care less about being reserved, and said with a smile: "What are you worried about, Princess Yan asked us to report to you, then it must be ** not far from ten." That's right, you're in Qingzhou, you don't know the situation in Beijing yet, the queen is gone in winter, and you're going to set up a new queen this spring. ”

Yan Qingge was taken aback, Qingzhou was in winter, the road was difficult, and a lot of news was lagging behind, so she didn't know about the queen's death at all.

She hurriedly looked at the dress on her body, fortunately, there is nothing red and green, simple and tight, although there is no filial piety clothes, but there is nothing to criticize, otherwise it will be a trouble to learn these eunuchs in the future.

"Dare to ask a few fathers-in-law, which lady is going to be crowned?" Yan Qingge asked.

"This is a royal business, we don't know. But there is a happy event in my mother's house that I want to tell you. Your sister is a good person, and she was crowned a concubine last year, which is really a great joy! ”

Yan Qingge didn't expect that so many things had happened when he was not in the capital for a few months, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

The queen died, and Yan Shuyu became a concubine, all in the winter after she left the capital. What is the connection between the two?

Just when she was stunned, the eunuch surnamed Zhao couldn't help but get up from his seat, walked to the box, and played with the yellow-orange-orange "gold" with a slight reddish tinge.

"What a good thing! Qingzhou is really a great place! Eunuch Zhao said obsessively.

Yan Qingge sneered in his heart, and the smile on his face became softer and softer: "Yes, this is what I got from a gold mine in Qingzhou." ”

When these words came out, Eunuch Zhao was even more satisfied, he had completely believed that this was gold.

Only Yan Qingge knows that this box is really a native product of Qingzhou, their main ingredient is copper, and they also contain a little gold, but the content is very small. However, they were indeed associated copper found in gold mines, and Yan Qingge did not lie.

She struck while the iron was hot, and saw that the eunuch Zhao was very satisfied, so she decided to ask him a few more questions. Because she intuitively felt that this Eunuch Zhao must know a lot of unknown secrets in his heart.
